Painful fairytale

@Uootem

Flesh is so tender
              when roses in the garden of life
                                            grow only thorns,
                          petals withered and
                                      beauty not shown,
                        hanging head,
          with no sunlight.
                        dark bloom
                              sleeps deeply,
        inspiration wakes
for only one.

dreaming color
              unknown,
                    to the face of lost love's gardener.
                                              who lies intoxicated
                      by the winter darkness,
                                      looking under fallen leaves
                            for forgetfulness,
          yet he still remembers
                                springtime.
                                          and the faithless prince,
                              weeps softly,
                                        leaving no echoes,
          in the hollowed tower of time,
                                      for the princess
                                                    is not there...
